Albert Nobbs Trailer: Glenn Close Sheds Cross-Dressing Light oRodrigo Garcían Equal Opportunity

Albert Nobbs

Albert Nobbs is just one of the many award-winning buzz movie trailers released these past few weeks, and given a very strong performance from Glenn Close, it is understandable to see why. But while the performance is strong, I cannot make out what this movie is suppose to be. But whether it is a drama, comedy, or a blend of the two and more, one thing is for sure, Glenn Close’s performance looks tailored to win a few awards.

Nobbs does seem to poke fun at her sexuality, trying to pass off as a man, but outside forces seem to thrust her into confusion. So I really don’t understand what Albert Nobbs is trying to be.

Directed by Rodrigo García (Nine Lives) Albert Nobbs also stars Mia Wasikowska, Aaron Johnson, Brendan Gleeson, Janet McTeer, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Pauline Collins, and Brenda Fricker.
